- Extra Details:
- Prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP), also called prostatic specific acid phosphatase (PSAP), is an enzyme produced by the prostate. It may be found in increased amounts in men who have prostate cancer or other diseases. The highest levels of acid phosphatase are found in metastasized prostate cancer. Diseases of the bone, such as Paget's disease or hyperparathyroidism, diseases of blood cells, such as sickle-cell disease or multiple myeloma or lysosomal storage diseases, such as Gaucher's disease, will show moderately increased levels. Certain medications can cause temporary increases or decreases in acid phosphatase levels. Manipulation of the prostate gland through massage, biopsy or rectal exam before a test may increase the level. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications have not been tested. Recommended Dilutions: Immunohistochemistry (Frozen): 1:10-1:20 Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin): 1:10-1:20. Microwave treatment is recommended. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Positive Control: Prostatic benign hyperplasia Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only.
